An easement is a right in the land of another. The right is often described as the right to use the land of another for a special purpose. An easement gives one party the right to go onto another party's property. That property may be owned by a private person, a business entity, or a group of owners. Utilities often get easements that allow them to run pipes or phone lines beneath private property. An easement is a real property interest, but separate from the legal title of the owner of the underlying land. This form is a generic example that may be referred to when preparing such a form for your particular state.

FAQ
As discussed, prescriptive easement actions require proof of open, notorious, exclusive, adverse, and continuous possession or use for the statutory period of 5 years. The burden is on the party seeking to establish the prescriptive easement, and all elements must be proved. Tanner v. Dream Island, Inc., 275 Mont.
Easements are generally specific to a particular piece of property and granted for uses such as private access roads to single family residences or for farm and ranch operations and concentrated use of a singular area, like public parks and associated facilities.
There are four common types of easements. They include easement by necessity, easement by prescription, easement by condemnation, and party easement.
Servient Tenement: The property burdened by the easement. Most often referred to as the ?burdened property.? This is the property over which the easement holder enjoys the easement rights. Dominant Tenement: For an ?appurtenant easement' (or ?easement appurtenant?), the property benefited by the easement.
To gain legal ownership of a property in Montana, squatters must be able to prove continuous possession of it. The land must have been occupied by the squatter continuously for five years. They must regularly maintain the property over those five years and are required to pay any property taxes imposed.
In order to establish that there is an easement by prescription, the seeker of the easement must demonstrate(1) continuous use of the subservient estate, (2) for a statutory period, (3) that was open and notorious, and (4) hostile.
Acquiring a prescriptive easement is analogous to acquiring property by adverse possession, except that the use need not be exclusive (i.e., the user may share the use with the owner or other easement claimants).
A prescriptive easement can be created by: Continuously using the property for 5 years; In a manner that is open, notorious, and clearly visible to the owner of the land; and. Hostile and adverse to the owner.
